posted /via/ Google.
That would be a highly unwise decision because say comp.lang.javascript
currently has 3460 active Gougle Groups subscribers, so this way you
would cut off approx. 30% of the monthly newsgroup traffic; and the
next year (if nothing awful happens with Google and the trend speed
remains the same) it will be 70%-90%. A bit of too high price to pay to
not see VK anymore IMHO :-)

I'd suggest asking the UK Committee, who are well-known to be standards-
respecting and collectively technically adept, what server they suggest.
It can do no harm.
Write right to the Queen! :-)
I guess one is still missing the root of the problem: and it is the
same as a software locked after the trial period expired. Is it a
problem? Yep. How to solve it? Pay damn money for a full version. If
one is not willing to pay, uninstall it and forget it, or... you know
what people do sometimes ;-)

one time setup fee of $3.95

$7.99/mo
No one is willing to pay? One needs to ask then in
<google.public.support.general> if making a program using Google Groups
access is not a reverse engineering or an interface stealing. I thought
I saw some mention of it, but I was wrong - so an additional official
clarification is needed.
P.S. Usenet by its nature is a spammers' dream. Just post *one* ads in
each group and it will be automatically replicated across all connected
servers. So Usenet in its old implementation can be considered as a
network of computers permanently infected by ILoveYou-like virus. Sorry
for a rude analogy, but it shows why account-less posting in Usenet is
blocked everywhere.
P.P.S. But it doesn't eliminate the possibility to find some caring
soul in some organisation to get an account on their news server. I
don't have any.
